I popped in at the Tattoo expo in CT this weekend. There were two SS bikes parked at the entrance of the venue. The one was white & red. Anyone on the Hub know the owner?

That looks like a fixie ( no free hub on the back wheel ) so you would use your legs to slow you down.

Probably a fixie so no need for rear brakes - slow down with your legs...

Me: "you have got to be a SS'der"

She: "Fo' shure"

True as nuts, 1x SS lying faithfully by.

Looks like the ones built for the guys at the techY gym thingy next to Calcatchio at Spearhead. Opposite Investec, behind Holiday inn.
The guys taht build them are in Woodstock, not sure the name. They specialise in SS & Fixie.
